Led teams to build cohesive products that tie together multiple services within the stack

Bridged the gap between developers and operations to introduce a reliable and maintainable system by leveraging modern CI/CD practices and Kubernetes

* Introduced Kubernetes as a way to deploy code, migrating away from a manual process, leveraging continuous integration processes to automatically build and release code using ArgoCD* Migrated previously running daemons over to Kubernetes by turning them into separate Docker containers, eliminating a lot of dependency mysteries per daemon* Introduced Terraform as a way to create and manage all future resources on AWS* Contributed in designing the data pipeline processes so they could scale automatically to process data in a timely manner as well as save costs when resources are not in use* Introduced monitoring platforms and alerts to better understand applications

● Led effort to move to Kubernetes for deploying our services, setting standards for Docker-ifying our  many services in the process ● Contributed heavily to infrastructure upgrade to load balance traffic better between applications using  HAProxy and making sure all the automation required is updated via custom Chef Cookbooks ● Created high performance PostgreSQL database POC for Tableau integration ● Reduced technical debt by updating legacy applications to meet new requirements and building internal  APIs for more efficient microservices ● Designed and implemented a central microservice which organized data and objects using PostGIS for  spatial querying ● Benchmarked and improved query performance on microservices by over 10x by simply making JSON  response creation more streamlined and making queries more efficient ● Investigated and understood throughput bottlenecks happening within our infrastructure and helped  solve issues involving hard to trace, slow requests ● Worked with client services to create a more streamlined and less error-prone UI

* Helped push changes into Infrastructure as Code using Terraform for better accounting of changes made to AWS* Moved applications over from legacy images over to Docker images on Kubernetes by separating the applications into pieces and ironing down the continuous integration process to facilitate automatic container builds and deployment via Jenkins

● Employee #2 at an early stage, agile startup ● Developed and maintained entire SAAS product portfolio along with corresponding services  ○ Developed and designed our web portion of our service using a Ruby on Rails framework ○ Migrated and created many front-end components using React.js, Coffeescript, and Javascript● Designed and developed our ETL tools in Ruby, meant to move data from customer environments over to  endpoints such as Amazon Redshift● Automated all deployments by using Chef via Amazon Opsworks● Designed and developed a Heroku add-on service which would transfer all logs up to Amazon S3 and  Amazon Redshift● Built a Docker container to run automated data integrity testing to be used for continuous integration● Wore multiple hats including running technical support for all customers as per a On-Call schedule
